Writing the Test method

The complete Test method is shown in the following code:

    @Test     public void basicTest() throws Exception {       this.mockMvc       .perform(       get("/welcome-model-map")       .accept(MediaType.parseMediaType       ("application/html;charset=UTF-8")))       .andExpect(model().attribute("name", "XYZ"))       .andExpect(view().name("welcome-model-map"));     }

A few important things to note:

  • get("/welcome-model-map"): Execute get request to the specified URL
  • model().attribute("name", "XYZ"): Result Matcher to check if the model contains specified attribute name with specified value XYZ
  • view().name("welcome-model-map"): Result Matcher to check if the view name returned is as specified
